GOURMET AND USER-FRIENDLY WORKSHOP - We had the pleasure of my wife and I to participate in the "Chocolate Soft" workshop at Cailler, and the experience exceeded our expectations! Everything was there for a perfect moment: clear and precise explanations, accessible techniques, quality products, and a friendly atmosphere. Marie-Francine and her assistant (whose first name unfortunately escapes us) knew how to make this workshop as informative as greedy. At the level of the finishing touches, the attempts to decorate with chocolate and the realization of rolled ice cream were nice surprises! A real plus: each participant leaves with a beautiful apron and the silicone molds used during this workshop. Not to mention the generous tasting of chocolates throughout the session, and of course, the pleasure of enjoying at the end, our creations with good coffee. An experience we will repeat without hesitation 🍫✨

Great workshop and excellent tour - I underestimated this place. Parking is away from building -keep that in mind if you are running late for workshops. We had a chocolate workshop where we got to flavour our chocolate, make Christmas trees and then decorate them. It was informative and really fun. You get to eat chocolate and then the chocolate that you also made. You also get to keep the apron. The tour itself blew me away. It was original and they made it interesting and it was very educating. Even my teens liked it! You get to have more chocolate. My teens were chocolated out! That says a lot. Great shop with lots of chocolate and little coffee shop overlooking the alps. I highly recommend this tour, they did a great job.

As in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - Great experience, the visit is suitable for all ages, children will meet there. The museum is interactive, the sets are very well done, all the senses are mobilized. Generous tasting at several stages of the tour. The visit tells us the history of chocolate through the ages, then the appearance of the Cailler house. The staff is very friendly and helpful. In addition, it is good value for money. The shop is very good with, of course, lots of choices. We realized a chocolate creation workshop: very good memory we could learn a lot about the handling of chocolate before creating our own piece. Marie-Francine was very kind. We recommend booking the tour and workshop in advance.

Educational but necessary improvements - The tour takes place in groups of about 15 people. The tour is very well prepared and very informative with tasting at the end of the tour. We had booked passes for three places but this does not give access to the reservation of the desired time of visit which is a bit of a shame when the house is full of visitors. You may have to wait four hours. This is a lack of communication between the offer of the tourist office of Gruyères and the chocolate factory and this should be updated and allow a full experience. The place allows you to buy delicious chocolates but it is understaffed so the toilets are dirty, no soap and the garbage cans overflow even from midday
